The deal represents one of the biggest office investments in the city’s history, and reflects a surge in interest of late.

In a statement, Union Investment said: “As the 海角视频’s second largest city, with approximately one million inhabitants, Birmingham has a broadly diversified, dynamically evolving economy with an emphasis on the automotive and financial services industries.
“Rents are forecast to increase in the Birmingham office market over the next few years, especially in the core segment.”
One Snowhill was completed by Irish property developer Ballymore in 2009 and purchased by Commerz Real a year later.
